Cheech Marin Born In East La Mp3

Song Lyricscheech marin and tommy chong - born in east la(Cheech:) Took a walk to the corner store Just to buy a loaf of bread and a box of s`mores Up pulled a guy in a yellow van Shiny gold badge flashing in his hand

(Chong:) He said, alright all you mojados down here I want you all to hit the floor I got one thing to ask you and nothing more So answer in English, if you can Where were ya born, man

(Cheech:) Huh? Where was I born?

(Chong:) That`s right, I said Where were ya born?

(Cheech:) Hey, are you one of those dudes who do horoscopes, man Hey, I`m a Cancer with a bad moon rising

(Chong:) Look here el fago, watch my lips Where were ya born?

(Cheech:) I was BORN IN EAST L.A. Man, I was BORN IN EAST L.A.

(Chong:) Oh yeah, you were BORN IN EAST L.A. Let`s see your green card

(Cheech:) Huh? Green card? I`m from East LA

(Chong:) Alright, then who`s President of the United States

(Cheech:) Oh, that`s easy, man That guy that used to be on Death Valley Days, John Wayne

(Chong:) Alright, let`s go, come on

(Cheech:) Next thing I know, I`m in a foreign land People talkin so fast, I couldn`t understand There was nobody there to lend a helping hand I was cold, it was dark where is a burger stand

I want to go back to East LA I wish I was back in East LA I don`t belong here in downtown T.J. Cause I was born in East LA, ole

I crawled under barbed wire, swam across a stream Rode in six different trucks packed like a sardine Walked all day in the burning sun Now I know what it`s like to be born to run

Up ahead was the promised land Shining like a star just beyond my hand All I could see was a golden door I looked up, a sign said five billion sold

And I was back in East LA Yes, I was back in East LA You know I`m never gonna stray Cause I was born in East LA, oh LA
